This was a very smooth and efficient process resulting in a very satisfactory outcome. The whole process took about one week with Lauren being on the ball from start to finish.
I would be happy to recommend Grant Saw based on my experience.

Amazing service!
I felt care for and they ensure everything went smoothly. I don't give 5 stars because I feel that the team could be more communicative.

Employment
Used Grant Saw to settle a dispute with my previous employer. They handled my case without delay and managed to resolve it ahead of time. Kept me informed throughout the process, fees were fair and appropriate to the work that needed to be carried out. Will definitely consider them again if the need ever arises!
